    0.7 m/s

    Explanation:

    velocity of first runner = 3.5 m/s

    velocity of second runner = 4.20 m/s

    Both the runner are running in the same direction

    velocity of second runner with respect to first runner = velocity of second runner - velocity of first runner

    velocity of second runner with respect to first runner = 4.20 - 3.5 = 0.7 m/s
